A. Multi-Purpose Inline Shock Absorber to D-Bolt Anchor
(see Figure 3)
In order to allow for maximum take-up and proper tensioning of the lifeline at the end of installation, the shock absorber must
be prepared for installation by following the procedure below.
Preparing the Shock Absorber for Installation:
► Open the shock absorber fully by loosening the locknuts on either side of the shock absorber body and rotating the shock
absorber, thus exposing the jaw bolt and eyebolt threads. [Note: When fully open, the shock absorber will measure ap
-
proximately 22-1/2" (572mm) from end of jaw to end of eyebolt. The shock absorber is designed to allow approximately 4"
(102mm) of take-up in the lifeline.]
► Once the shock absorber is fully open, rotate it in the opposite direction two to three turns. [Note: This allows for the pos
-
sibility of a lifeline that may be too tight after installation and consequently over-tensioned.]
► Now proceed with the installation steps below.
